I am deadset on not having 32bit libraries outside of a sandbox on my PC. I’m supposed to get a refund on all faulty PC parts I had so I ordered new ones and once they arrive, I will have a fresh system. I used flatpak Steam on my current system and it had no access to my download folder which I found slightly irritating. What would be better on Arch for Steam only: Snap or Flatpak? I am now partial to trying Snap but I figured I’ll ask in case anyone has any great/terrible experiences to share. c:

    It doesn’t make a big difference so if you install one of Flatpak oder Snap anyways for something else, stay with it. Otherwise I’d recommend Flatpak since it is somewhat native to Arch and there are many guides on how to configure it. Like @julianh@lemm.ee said, your privileges issue can be resolved. You don’t need a GUI for that, just follow the documentation, it’s pretty easy.
